Sebastopol, California. Solmetric Corporation has released the Solmetric iSV Sun Viewer iPhone application which allows you to make a quick assessment of the timing and impact of shading obstructions. The iSV application uses the iPhone camera to provide an "augmented reality" view of the sun paths at your location. This allows you to make a quick assessment of the timing and impact of shading obstructions. Solmetric iSV can be used for evaluation of solar access for solar energy systems, landscaping, agriculture, photography, event planning, or real estate assessment. In the camera view, the user can see how the obstructions interact with the sun path. Where an obstruction overlaps a sun path, shading will occur.

Solmetric iSV offers the following features:

Dynamic display of vertical azimuth lines, showing compass directions for all tilts.
Dynamic display of daily and annual sun paths for the current location.
Dynamic display of “cross-hair” marker on screen showing the azimuth and elevation angle of the center of the iPhone’s camera view.
Dynamic display of user adjustable reference line at an elevation angle at a distance to height ratio of 2:1, 3:1, or user selection.
Automatic detection of the current location using the iPhone’s GPS function and location-specific calculation of sun paths.
Sun path arc label by month and by time of day (hourly).
Current sun location with a sun icon.

The price of the Solmetric iSV Sun Viewer application is $4.99, and is available for download from the iTunes store. iSV is compatible with the iPhone 3GS only. For more information visit the Solmetric web site at www.solmetric.com.
